Richard J. Ternes

Richard J. Ternes is a Percheron breeder in Oberlin, Ohio, Lorain County and the Lake Erie region near Cleveland. For over twenty years, his farm has maintained membership with the Percheron Horse Association, and every horse undergoes routine health screenings for soundness and temperament. Foals grow up in open pastures, enjoy group socialization, and take part in imprinting sessions that encourage early learning and trust.

His approach blends traditional draft horse upbringing with selective training for light draft work and driving demonstrations at local fairs. Several of his Percherons have won reserve champion ribbons and now serve in therapeutic riding programs. Visitors often note the horses’ calm demeanor and strong confirmation, reflecting the careful attention at the farm. Regular photo updates document each horse’s development, and new owners often witness growth milestones and basic care routines during scheduled farm visits.
